APEX PARK PLAYGROUND

Public BBQ

Apex Park Playground sits like a coastal gem just steps from Altona's shoreline, where the salty breeze carries both promise and the occasional whiff of low tide. The playground equipment gleams with that well-maintained council pride, though navigating the entry requires a touch more patience than one might expect from a simple park visit. What strikes you immediately is the thoughtful layout - barbecue facilities positioned strategically among shade-providing trees, while an outdoor gym beckons the fitness-minded between the playground and generous grass expanses perfect for marquees. The location proves its worth on blazing afternoons when families spread across the ample parking areas on both the beach and golf club sides. Children shriek with delight at the vibrant, imaginatively designed play equipment, while parents appreciate the clean toilet facilities - a genuine relief in public parks. The morning joggers discover an unexpected hill at the two-kilometre mark, though volunteers maintain their cheerful disposition throughout. Wind can be fierce given the beachfront position, but that's part of the coastal charm that makes this park distinctly Altona.
